The Simply Sarah Handy Hold All

The year 2013 was meant to be a time of reorganization for me.  Grand plans were made to dispose of the unnecessary and, in an effort to reduce the clutter and possibly be able to find something when I’m looking for it, change how and where I store all of the things I decided were important enough to keep.  I’m about to show you a picture that illustrates how miserably I have failed at achieving my goal.

What you’re looking at is the handbag organizational system that I had in place up until very recently.  It really is as sad as it looks.  The closet shelf on which they sit is a couple of feet out of my reach, which means that my handbag storage and retrieval process involved tossing one onto the pile and hoping it wouldn’t roll back down and hit me on the head and fishing one down with a hanger and praying that I wouldn’t inadvertently trigger a purse avalanche.  Clearly, I was in need of some help.  Here to save the day (and my fragile head) is Simply Sarah and her Handy Hold All.

The Handy Hold All is a stylish and easy-to-use solution to the handbag storage dilemma.  This canvas organizer is made of a heavyweight cotton, conveniently includes an over-the-door hook, and has seven loops, each of which can accommodate up to four items and features a snap closure.

Hook the hanger onto a door, hook your bags onto the hanger, and you have this:

It’s nice and neat, and I can access all of my bags without fearing a possible avalanche.  The Handy Hold All system took me from messy to orderly in just a few minutes.  The hardest part was getting all of those bags down from the shelf!  It’s also a great way to organize other things, such as reusable shopping bags, scarves, and baseball caps. (Note to my husband:  I’m not sharing.  Get your own.)

Simply Sarah’s Hand Hold All is currently available in 4 attractive designs from SimplySarahShaw.com.  Everything else in my life is still a cluttered mess, but this is a step in the right direction, and it took very little effort to accomplish.  If you could use some help getting organized too, definitely go check out her web site!
